1 Microbiological Assay of Vitamin B12 with a Mutant Strain of Escherichia coli1 Departinfrct of Biochemnistry, College of Agriculture, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin Received for publication August 25, 1952 Two strains of Lactobacillus leichmanii, ATCC 7830 and ATCC 4797, are generally used for vitamin B12 assay. However, the complex growth requirements and the lack of specificity to vitamin B12 of these lactic acid bacteria make the determination of vitamin B12 difficult (Hoffmann et al., 1948; Skeggs et al., 1948; Snell et al., 1948; Capps et al., 1949; Kitay et al., 1949; Peeler et al., 1949; Winsten and Eigen, 1949; Thompson et al., 1950; Emery et al., 1951). Euglena responds to the vitamin more specifically and to a much lower concentration, but the prolonged time of incubation (4 to 7 days) is a handicap in routine assay (Hutner et al., 1949). Davis and Mingioli (1950) reported the isolation of a number of mutants of Escherichia coli which require either vitamin B12 or methionine for growth in mineral medium. In contrast to the lactic acid bacteria, the B12- requiring mutants did not respond to thymidine. Because of the simple medium required, ease of growing the organism, and the specificity of its B12 requirement, a study was made to ascertain the suitability of such a mutant as assay organism for vitamin B12. Bessell et al. (1950) used mutant E. coli and Harrison, Lees, and Wood (1951) used a mutant of E. coli for a plate assay of B12. Johansson (1951) reported briefly a turbidimetric procedure. At the time of completion of this work, Burkholder (1951) reported the study of the same mutant for B12 assay in a modified medium. EXPERIMENTAL METHODS The organism used was E. coli 113-3, a mutant kindly supplied by Dr. B. D. Davis of Cornell University. The medium was that of Davis and Mingioli (in g per liter: K2HPO4, 7.0; KH2PO4, 3.0; Na-citrate 3H20, 0.5; MgSO4-7H20, 0.1; (NH4)2SO4, 1.0; glucose, 2.0) with ph adjusted to 6.8. For routine assay, the tubes (18 x 150 mm) containing the medium without glucose, were autoclaved at 115 C for min. The glucose was autoclaved separately and added aseptically. The inoculum was grown in the medium supplied with 0.2 per cent of acid hydrolyzed casein and 0.5 m,g of B12 per ml at 30 C for 8 to 12 hr, centrifuged, washed once 1 Published with the approval of the Director of the Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station. Supported in part by a grant from the Red Star Yeast and Products Company, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. 42 and resuspended in 0.9 per cent sterile saline to give a transmission of about 70 per cent with a 540 m,u filter in an Evelyn colorimeter. One drop of the washed and diluted inoculum was added to each of the assay tubes containing a total ml of medium. The tubes were placed in a rack in a tilted position on a reciprocating shaker (84 strokes of cm length per min) for 16 hr in a 30 C incubator. The growth was measured turbidimetrically in the colorimeter with a 540 filter. The method of extracting B12 from samples is that used by the late Dr. H. W. Cromwell (1950) to whom we are indebted for the following procedure. One g of sample was added to 0 ml of water, or to 0 ml of 0.1 M citrate (ph 4.5) containing 0.1 per cent of sodium bisulfite added just -before use. The mixture was autoclaved at 115 C for min, adjusted to ph 5.0, filtered and diluted to volume. The B12 content of these extracts and of two samples of U. S. P. liver preparations without any treatment was determined with L. leichmannii (ATCC 4797) and E. coli The medium used for the former organism was that of Thompson et al. (1950). The methionine content of these extracts and liver preparations was determined with Leuconostoc citrovorum 8081 (Steele et al., 1949). The cyanide treatment for converting all forms of the vitamin to B12 developed by Skeggs et al. (1951) was applied to citrate extracts and liver preparations as follows: The sample containing jug of B12 was mixed with 8 mg of KCN in about 0 ml of 1 per cent phosphate buffer (ph 5.8) at 60 C for 1 hr, diluted and assayed for total activity. The excess of the cyanide was removed by aeration with air for 30 min. The m-itant was sensitive to cyanide. RESULTS Growth response of the mutant to crystalline vitamin B12. Crystalline vitamin B12 from Merck and Co., Inc. was used as the standard. The growth response in shaken tubes is given in figure 1. The standard curve was reproducible, as illustrated in table 1. The usable range was from 0.05 to 1.5 m,ug per ml. With the small inoculum used, 16 hr were required for maximal growth. Longer incubation increased the growth slightly but cut down the usable range of the standard curve. In trying to avoid the necessity of aeration, assays in test-tubes and Erlenmeyer flasks without shaking were
2 ASSAY OF VITAMIN B12 WITH E. COLI 43 tested. The growth responses are given in figure 1. The assay range became smaller, with an upper limit of about 0.7 m,sg per ml, and the growth was much less than that in the shaken tubes. The medium sterilized with all its ingredients together gave less growth than that with glucose autoclaved separately. By adding per cent of sodium bisulfite, glucose could be sterilized with the other constituents and the resulting medium supported a growth equal to that with glucose sterilized separately. The growth curve given by the medium containing bisulfite is shown in figure 1. Bessell et al. (1950) used the synthetic medium of Tatum and Lederberg (1947) enriched with the trace elements of Beadle and Tatum (1945), and also a simpler one (in g per liter: NH4H2PO4, 1.0; KCI, 0.2; MgSO4-401 PERCENT 9' I ItAN MISSION K v, mpg VITAMIN B, PER TUBE OR FLASK FIG. 1.

These two media were tested with the mutant under the conditions of incubation used. The first medium gave a minimum transmission of about 45 per cent and covered the same range as Davis and Mingioli's medium. The second medium supported less growth because of the low buffer capacity. Burkholder (1951) added asparagine, arginine, glutamic acid, glycine histidine, tryptophan, and sodium thioglycollate to Davis and Mingioli's medium and also increased the glucose to 1 per cent. The growth of the mutant in Burkholder's medium under the conditions of incubation used was essentially the same as that in the original medium. The addition of thioglycollate did not prevent the formation of a light yellow color in the medium during sterilization. Recovery of added vitamin B12. Crystalline vitamin B12 was added to several samples and the total B12 was then determined. Examples of such recovery experiments are given in table 2. From a large number of these experiments, the average recovery of total B12 was found to range from 95 to 8 per cent. The assay results did not show any drifting at different levels of sample as is illustrated in table 3. VITAMIN B1i TABLE 1.

Interference of methionine. The mutant requires either vitamin B12 or methionine for growth in the medium. Because of the possible presence of methionine in B12 containing materials and especially in liver preparations, the growth response of the mutant to methionine and the interference of the latter in the as,ay was
3 44 studied. In the medium without B12, 0,ug of methionine gave a maximum growth of 35 after 16 hr incubation under the conditions used. For testing the interference of methionine, varying amounts of L-methionine were added to asay tubes containing different amounts TABLE 3.

Table 4 summarizes the results. When the ratio of methionine to vitamin B12 on a weight basis was 50,000 or less, the presence of the former did not introduce any significant error in the assay. The methionine content of liver preparations and APF extracts was determined and found to be far below the limiting ratio (see table 5). Johansson (1951) reported a ratio of 300,000.based on the detectable amounts of methionine (150 mpg per ml) and of B12 ( mug per ml) when tested separately. However, there may be a difference in the growth response of the mutant to methionine alone and to methionine in the presence of B12. The more reliable method for the determination of the interference is the recovery experiment. TABLE 5.

Guanine, uracil, adenine and xanthine added together at a concentration 8 times that used for the lactic acid bacteria also gave no stimulation to the mutant. Fifteen amino acids, exclusive of methionine, added singly at levels up to 0.5 mg per tube did not affect the assay. Vitamin B12 content of commercial APF and liver preparations. The B12 and methionine content of these
4 ASSAY OF VITAMIN B12 WITH E. COLI 45 samples are given in table 5. The citrate buffer extracted more B12 from the APF samples than water alone. The bisulfite contained in the citrate buffer did not affect the growth of the organism at the dilutions used. The APF extracts and liver preparations were also treated with alkali to destroy the vitamin as described by Hoffmann et al. (1949) and then assayed. At the same dilutions used before treatment, the samples were inactive. This indicated that the entire activity was due to B12, and not to the desoxyribosides which are stable to alkali. The E. coli results for the water extracts of APF samples ranged from 71 to 88 per cent (average 81) and for the citrate extracts, 82 to 98 per cent (average 91) of the L. leichmannii values. The mutant also gave low figures for the two liver preparations, 85 and 93 pei cent of the L. leichmannii results. A cyanide enhancement effect on B12 assay has been reported (Skeggs et al., 1951; Cooperman et at., 1951). Results of this treatment on the citrate extracts and liver preparations are given in table 5. The activity of the citrate extracts for the mutant ranged from 87 to 99 per cent (average 95) of the L. teichmannii results. The E. coli figures for the liver samples were 93 and 5 per cent of the corresponding L. leichmannii values. The greater increase in activity of the samples after the cyanide treatment when assayed with the mutant may be due to the lower response of the organism to other forms of B12 present in the samples before the cyanide treatment. In general the mutant gave results not higher than those given by L. leichmannii. Activity of different forms of vitamin B12. Different forms of vitamin B12 occur in nature and have different potencies for certain assay organisms. The activity of four natural forms of vitamin B12 to the mutant was tested. Effect of cyanide on each of these forms was also determined. Vitamin Bl2b was found to have 75 per cent of the activity of B12. After cyanide treatment and aeration, Bl2b showed the same potency as B12, but only 88 per cent activity without aeration. B12 gave quantitative recovery after the same treatment and aeration, but a much lower recovery, 93 per cent, without aeration. These results indicated the sensitivity of the mutant to the excess of cyanide, and that in using this organism for the assay of natural material treated with cyanide, the excess of the latter must be removed. Crystalline pseudovitamin B12 (Pfiffner et al., 1951), obtained from the anaerobic fermentation of an as yet unidentified organism from bovine rumen content was kindly furnished by Dr. J. J. Pfiffner and was found to have a low activity to the mutant. Two,ug of this material was equivalent to 0.77 ;ig of vitamin B12 and the relative activity about 0.4. In a private communication, Dr. Pfiffner gave the following comparison of activity (activity of vitamin B12 = 1) to three or- ganisms: L. Ieichmannii 7830, autoclaved 0.9, added aseptically 1.9; LactobaciUus acidophilus 8322, autoclaved 4.5, added aspetically 5.8; Lactobacillus lactis Dorner, 0.8. The E. coli mutant is less responsive than any of these bacteria. Vitamin Big, a material from rat feces, was found to have the same Rf value as the pseudovitamin B12 by Dr. U. J. Lewis, of this Department. A purified preparation of this material with an activity of 1.5 ug per ml to L. leichmannii ATCC 7830, determined by Dr. Lewis, was equivalent to 1.27 ug per ml to the mutant. No cyanide enhancement was observed with either pseudovitamin B12, or with vitamin B12f. SUMMARY A turbidimetric assay of vitamin B12 with a mutant strain of Escherichia coli is described. The standard curve was reproducible in shaken tubes and recovery of added vitamin B12 was satisfactory. Assay with stationary tubes a-nd flasks gave smaller usable range of the growth curve. Methionine interfered only when present in amounts 50,000 times that of B12. Samples analyzed to date showed a ratio of methionine to B12 on a weight basis of less than 400. Citrate buffer containing a little bisulfite released more Bu from the commercial APF samples than water alone. Seven commercial APF samples and two liver preparations were analyzed with the mutant and also with Lactobaciltus leichmannii (ATCC 4797). The first gave figures ranging from 71 to 5 per cent of that given by the second. Six of the samples showed an increased B12 content of from 7 to 33 per cent after cyanide treatment. Vitamin Bl2b with the same treatment and removal of the excess of cyanide showed the same activity as B12. Pseudovitamin B12 and vitamin B12f were found to have a lower activity than vitamin B12. No cyanide enhancement was obtained with these two forms of vitamin B12. REFERENCES BEADLE, G. W., AND TATUM, E. L Neurospora. II.
